Diamondbacks relievers Junior Guerra and Silvino Bracho have tested positive for COVID-19, manager Torey Lovullo revealed Sunday. They are two of the three players on the club’s 40-man roster known to have contracted the virus, Lovullo said.
Both players “are asymptomatic and feel great,” Lovullo said, adding that they are doing what they can at home to stay ready. They will need to test negative twice 24 hours apart in order to be cleared to return.
There are still several players who have yet to be seen at Diamondbacks camp – including outfielders David Peralta and Kole Calhoun and reliever Kevin Ginkel – but Lovullo cautioned not to jump to conclusions.
